How about just using the final ':' to expect ?
===============
#!/bin/sh
/usr/sbin/pppd connect '/usr/sbin/chat -v -t90 "" "ATZ" "OK"
"ATDTXXX-XXX-XXXX" ": "LOGINNAME" "word:" "YOURPASSWORD"'
/dev/ttyS1 115200 debug lock crtscts asyncmap 0 modem defaultroute mtu 1500
===============
In line above after the number to dial, note the ":" if this is what
is the final charactor it responds with then something like this should work.
This is all one line of course in a simple script.
